    Primarily I don't want to have to worry about where I park my Southern Reg car. And yeah I am pissed to be going to a concert in a place where I have to be concerned about things like that, when they almost filled the O2 only a few years ago - their promoter has ****ed up here in my opinion.

    The dumbest post I've read on boards and that's some going.

    Regularly in Belfast, been to concerts in Belfast I never gave a 2nd thought about my southern reg car. It's a belter of a city and I'm looking forward to this.

    Was up there recently for a gig and people were almost universally friendly. Everyone offering tips and places to go/drink/eat. Brilliant city.

    Rated the safest city in the UK now and walking around late at night there I agree. People just getting on with their lives away from politics

    I was there last week - absolute hellhole. Once they saw a southern reg, it all kicked off...


    ((Hopefully that's one less person trying to get tickets :P))

    Prices confirmed as £83.00 - £99.00 plus fees.

    Thats very expensive for a field in Belfast.

    Saw some videos of their gigs so far this summer last night.

    The amount of pyro is jaw dropping even for a Rammstein gig.

    That being said, it's not cheap.

    How can you get excited about a gig that's a year away, that would drive me nuts, why can't you say, excuse can we have it now please.

    Aren't you excited for EP 2020 and the inevitable Radiohead/Apex Twin headlining slots?

    Midweek gig is stopping me going to this, between days off work and the price, hard to justify for me

    A year away is better than never at all.

    Considering a mini European trip to see them. How likely would tickets for their home gigs in Germany to sell out quickly?

    Not to put the sh!ts up you but moreso to inform you....the LIFAD presale for the Germany shows left members without tickets from what I can tell.

    That's not to say that you won't get a ticket as there's only a limited number of tickets available for presale.

    It wasn't too far off a year before the gig that the tickets were released for the O2 gig in 2012 and I'm as excited now as I was then :D

    They have added a second night for all of the German gigs so that should help ease demand.
    Saying that the demand seems to be huge ,they sold out some of the venues,Leipzig and Berlin in presale alone.

    Is it not all one standing area? How come there is a range of prices?

    I think that would just be the presale tickets, only a small amount would be allocated for that.


  • Registered Users Posts: 19,854 ✭✭✭✭MetzgerMeister


    Not a hope they could have sold out the venue on presale tickets. more like all the presale tickets were sold out :)

    Nope ,they literally sold out the venues .
    You could see from the seatmaps what seats were available for each venue and for alot of them they put almost all of the seats onsale.
    You could pick your exact seat off the map.

    Must be alot of LIFAD members.
    It makes sense though ,sell as many tickets as you can in presale for venues where a second date is to be added.

    No... They didn't

    Would rammstein be known for bringing decent support acts on these tours or do they rely on there own reputation to get people in?

    I've seen them about 8 times, 3 at festivals and 5 of their own shows and with their own show i honestly can't remember 1 support band, and if a support band is in any way decent i'll always make an attempt to catch them....make of that what you will

    Yeah I was kinda thinking they wouldn’t exactly be inclined to have a quality packed undercard, pricy gig considering but they are known for putting on quite the show so I’ll probably take the hit.

    no support act could improve a rammstein gig

    For their O2 gig they had Deathstars. They were quite good.

    The last I heard of support acts for this tour, they have French piano duo Jatekok and they are performing the Klavier album in full on 2 pianos.

    Don't know how Rammstein thought this would get the crowd warmed up but then again, they're opening every show with "Was Ich Liebe" so things are strange in the R+ camp these days!


  • Registered Users Posts: 521 ✭✭✭Stormington


    Deathstars played at the O2. Their tunes was good but their little banner was raggedy even before factoring in Rammstein's spinning cock.

    Ghost did a savage job at Slane. I would happily pay to see them on their own but they may be touring for the next year or two so may not be available.
